About the SFT

The School Food Tour was a 5,000+ mile solo bicycle tour that focused on educating and empowering youth to create healthy changes at home and in their schools. While on the road Sara Salo, MPH, advocated for healthy school meals and sustainable food production.

Final timeline & pilot testing

(I’d like to add that projecting how far and how fast one will complete various legs of a bike tour a whole 1 year prior to departure is a laborious task and not to be undertaken lightly… I’m pretty sure route planning will prove to be more difficult than actually riding the Tour!)

Additionally, I had a super successful meeting last week with a local middle school. The staff are really enthusiastic about the Tour and keen to get their students involved. I am lucky that the teachers are also willing to give me some feedback about the curriculum. The end result is going to be productive, exciting and interactive classroom sessions. Fantastic progress!
